I keep losing my direction
It seems like I've passed this place before
I don't believe in second chances
Not with the lies that I've told
The trees hang over the edge of
The dead end to my street
Like the angels hang over my shoulder
They've lost their faith in me
If I go away then you won't know me anymore
Or so I'll pretend
If I leave today, better to be forgotten
Than remembered this way
...
You say that everyone is faulted
That days hold minutes in reserve
For the moments we wish to do over
And the lessons we are to learn
If I go away then you won't know me anymore
Or so I'll pretend
If I leave today, better to be forgotten
Than remembered this way
(So) I fly and I fall
But I will not open up
I come undone
Unraveled in the moment
Outwardly unspoken and then it's gone
I keep losing my direction
It seems like I've passed this place before
If I go away then you won't know me anymore
Or so I'll pretend
If I leave today, better to be forgotten
Than remembered this way
(I don't want you remembering me this way)
If you go away then I won't know me anymore
Or so you'll pretend
If you leave today,
Think I could just forget you
It doesn't work that way
If you go away then I won't know me anymore
Or so you'll pretend
If you leave today,
Think I could just forget you
It doesn't work that way
(Don't you leave me,
Don't you leave me,
Don't you leave me this way)
